Our national human rights agenda was built using the United States Constitution, the Integrity Model and Human-Centered Solutions. It's specifically designed to result in securing individual freedom and civil and social equality and equity for all people in the United States of America. We focus our efforts on policies and systems in eight (8) focus areas, each with their own goals and objectives.

We focus our efforts on: 

• Integrity in Government
• Economic and Immigration Equity
• Promoting and Celebrating Diversity and Unity Among the American People While Ensuring Accessibility and Inclusion
• Promoting Justice and Fairness
• Protecting Individual Liberties and Freedoms

• Securing Individual Liberties for Future Generations

We support empowerment-based and human centered advocacy efforts, policies and systems that lead to:

Did you know? All People Thriving is an independent, small business.

We operate similar to a nonprofit, and are dedicated to keeping our prices affordable (and free when we can). However, we support the rules that require nonprofit organizations to remain nonpartisan and refrain from endorsing political parties or politicians. Our work requires us to be able to endorse or oppose political parties and candidates in some cases, so we choose the small business model for our work. Leaving a "tip" or "buying us a cup of coffee" helps to keep our programs and services affordable for all people. If you like what we do, and would like to support our work, please consider buying us a cup of coffee.

Otherwise, you can skip over that part and click "submit" to finish up.

Thank you for viewing our national Human Rights Agenda!
